Buchberger Quartet - Adorno: 2 Works for String Quartet / 7 Short

Like Schönberg, Berg, and Webern, Adorno preferred to set contemporary poetry from the "expressionist decade." The present CD offers part of the ambitious oeuvre of an artist who made sociology and philosophy his career and yet would not be satisfied as merely a dilettante composer.The recordings released here were made in a concert presented by Frankfurt's Alte Oper in September 1988.
